KONY 2012

Please put down your work, essays, children or whatever else is occupying your hands at this moment and watch this film. 

Its 29mins, but please do not be tempted to skip. It is so important. Use it for procrastination if that works for you. 

It has become so easy in our modern world to have become desensitised to issues such as this but these children matter. They matter to me, and i surely hope that they matter to you. 


Disclaimer: To be clear, i do not wholly support Invisible Children's way of going about this. These reservations are based on allegations to do with their chosen military strategies. 
However i do believe that trying to help is better than sitting back in our comfortable lives and doing nothing. I also think that awareness of these children's plights can not be a bad thing. Just please read both sides of the story and make up your own mind, before giving any monetary donations or supporting their cause beyond raising awareness.
